I do a lot of photo work. At first, the first one looks faked because of the top lighting on the two (excuse me) men. It is both whiter and brighter and from a direction different than would seem to be justified by the backdrop. Then when you see the second photo, you see the splash of light on the side wall of similar color temperature. There might be a hall skylight or a bounce shot from a flash? Given a shallow depth of field and six to ten feet behind the suspects... I mean subjects, the apparent contrast between suspect and background becomes less concerning.

I looked at the first image in a photo-editor at 400-600% magnification, and there is no truncation of Davis' loose hairs around his head and there is no "haloing" at the edges. The color matrix looks different, but that could just be lighting and focus. The highlights on the hair are consistent with the reflections off the glasses and the splash of light on the wall. I therefore honestly can't tell if it was doctored and would need to download a high-resolution image to be more certain.

That's what I was trying to say

In other words, if this was faked, then it was a very good fake?

I don't think they're fake. Simon's been burned before, so I think they'd have made DARN sure about this BEFORE they went public. If so, then this could be it for Grayout.
